Space Opera Fans discussion

This thread is for nominations for READER category for January 2021.

READER books need to be
* currently in print in either hardback or paperback (or both). Requiring a special order from a store or website counts, but not if the book is only available used.
* currently available in multiple ebook formats, from multiple vendors
* Space Opera, which means a spaceship has to be involved in the story somewhere.
* If it is part of a series, it needs to be suitable to being read without having read other books in the series.
* Please no blatantly erotic books, as some of our members are not full adults yet.

RULES:
* you may nominate one book on this thread.
* you may second as many nominations as you like on this thread.
* it is okay to nominate the same book on more than one nomination thread, as long as it meets the criteria
* books we already have on our bookshelf will be disqualified if they were added less than two years ago
* If a book you nominate or second is selected, you are expected to post at least one comment about it on the thread about the book.
* In about two weeks I will draw a book randomly, with each second being one raffle ticket for the book. That is, a book with three seconds (so four of us want it) will get three chances in the pool.

It is likely helpful if you know something about a book that has been nominated if you mention it in this thread, whether it is for or against the book.

I nominate To Fire Called by Nathan Lowell. We finished the previous book for the December 2020 group read, which I greatly enjoyed.

Seconded

I nominate Half Share. I enjoyed Quarter share but I haven't gotten around to the second book, and I want to read Lowell's books in order!

Second Half Share. Full Share is even better. I don’t reread Double Share as often because there’s more violence in it.

Nominations will close tomorrow. Unless there’s another nomination, we will have another Ish book next month.

Summary so far:
To Fire Called by Nathan Lowell. Nominated by Audrey. Seconded by Teresa.
Double Share by Nathan Lowell. Nominated by Ryan. Seconded by Teresa.

Nominations are now closed.

Our Reader Pick for January is To Fire Called.

(I’d have been pleased either way, myself)
